Hippie chic style with a lovely dress from spanish brand Smash!, wearing suede mules. Suede and warm, orangey colors are so typical of such a Seventies style look, and my Loriblu crossed mule heeled sandals have that nostalgic mood. Compta casual Smash! dress is in jersey fabric and features a statement print and a below the knee length. I am personally in love with 70s style and also with the music from that period and from time to time I enjoy wearing such a revival outfit, always tailored to my own personal taste, of course!

A striped overall from spanish brand Smash! is one of my holidays staple. How to wear it? It's both an easy and trendy piece, eye catching and simple. I am finally on my holidays and after so many days at the beach I am now on the mountains to catch some fresh air and breathtaking views. But let's go back to my jumpsuit: a viscose piece with belt at the waist that is perfect with sneakers and also with heels. I chose to wear it with #StayMercury #SuperGirl heels designed by my lovely Angela Pavese for Vigevano Shoes. I personally love touches of red over a striped print.

How to style wedge espadrilles: my Viscatas and a total black outfit idea

How to style wedge espadrilles? Forget the idea that espadrilles are only meant to be worn with casual outfits. I have decided to wear myLloret wedge espadrilles from brand Viscata in total black outfit, perfect for a sunset drink on the beach but also for a walk in the city. A cotton and lace black off the shoulder dress was my choice, together with a leather Malloni bag. My Viscatas are handcrafted in Barcelona, Spain, and are super comfortable. I went for a slingback design, that is also my favorite design for heels, but there are so many other espadrillas on Viscata website, and they fit true to size. I love the shape of these espadrillas because of the pointed toe, not too usual.

What to wear to a summer wedding: my outfit with a pure silk maxi dress and a metallic sheen

What to wear to a summer wedding? This first august outfit post is featuring a wedding attire I sported last week for the wedding of my good friends. The weather was extremely hot and this light maxi dress in pure silk was perfect to keep it both fresh and elegant. I chose a metallic sheen both with the jacquard fabric of this dress and with my accessories: golden cage sandals from Giovanni Fabiani and a lovely metallic clutch from Malloni.

Sweet Years beachwear collection summer 2017

Sweet Years, the famous brand from Milan I have already told you about, is back on this fashion blog with its beachwear collection. It's the second time around for Sweet Years with beachwear and I have been pleasantly struck with the collection that, for 2017, is called Sweet&Surf. Trendy, fun, statement pieces, just like this bikini with stripes and lemons - the sweet summer one - that reminds me of a Capri and Amalfi Coast summer, and you know how much I love those places. This lovely bikini is coming with me in my well deserved days on the beach, with its retro vibes, as you can see from my pics, taken with my iPhone during my everyday beach life. Besides the swimsuit, Sweet Years beachwear also features other pieces, like the maxi t-shirt you see me wearing, fresh and carefree.

Outfit ideas: July 2017 fashion recap

Outfit ideas and fashion recap from July: I have been slowing down the posts just a little bit because I am having a hectic life among the work and studying and in my spare time I have been enjoying the sea and the beach. Blogging is, as you know, a passion therefore it is affected by a slower rhythm and...extreme heat. So, this means we have less looks this month - but we're going to be back to usual number of outfits soon. These four outfits may be fewer in number but they do represent my idea of casual and of party elegance. What is your favorite one?
